David Brooks: Wales boosted by Bournemouth midfielder's Covid all clear

Bournemouth's David Brooks has handed Wales manager Ryan Giggs a boost ahead of October's games against England, Republic of Ireland and Bulgaria.

The midfielder, 22, missed his club's 1-0 win over Norwich City on Sunday after displaying "feverish symptoms" but has tested negative for Covid-19.

Giggs names his squad on Wednesday for the friendly against England at Wembley and two away Nations League games.

Tottenham Hotspur forward Gareth Bale could miss out with a knee problem.

The 31-year-old suffered the injury on Wales duty earlier this month and has yet to feature for Spurs, after rejoining his former club on loan from Real Madrid.
